A quick word from Jevic
     With the current Trump administration in charge of the Unitd States, LGBTQ+ people have come under attack even worse than before, especially transgendered folks. Here are some sources for legal assistance, advocacy and/or advice.
    Presented in alphabetical order


ACLU
   The American Civil Liberties Union works to ensure that lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer people can live openly without discrimination and enjoy equal rights, personal autonomy, and freedom of expression and association.
Advocates for Trans Equality
   Established in 2024, Advocates for Trans Equality (A4TE) was conceived in February 2022, when Texas state officials directed state child protection workers to investigate parents who were suspected of having provided their children with medically necessary transition-related healthcare. It was the first time that state officials had ordered this kind of investigation, and it represented a new, extremely frightening level of danger to our community. Two leading national trans civil rights organizations, National Center for Transgender Equality (NCTE) and Transgender Legal Defense and Education Fund (TLDEF) merged together to lead the next chapter of the transgender rights movement.
Lambda Legal
   Lambda Legal’s lawyers have won precedent-setting civil rights cases on everything from marriage equality to expressions of gender identity to health care discrimination.
National Center for Lesbian Rights
   NCLR is a national legal organization committed to advancing the civil and human rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people and their families through litigation, legislation, policy, and public education.
The National LGBTQ+ Bar Association and Foundation
   The LGBTQ+ Bar was founded over thirty years ago at the height of the HIV/AIDS crisis. In 1987, the idea of creating a gay and lesbian bar association was formally introduced at the Lesbian & Gay March on Washington. In 1992, the LGBTQ+ Bar became an official affiliate of the American Bar Association and it now works closely with the ABA’s Section on Individual Rights and Responsibilities and its Committee on Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity.
Southern Poverty Law Center
   NCLR is a national legal organization committed to advancing the civil and human rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people and their families through litigation, legislation, policy, and public education.
Workplace Discrimination
   Have you been discriminated against?
